The Holy Grail War Blessed by the Gods

Hieda Arie suddenly opened her eyes and told Manshu what she knew.

"In that case, it's enough to expose it."

"Gods, dragons, and demons should not exist in this world, nor should many spells exist in this world."

As far as I know, there is no mystery in the world!

As far as I know, "you're just a legend!"

Hieda Arie loudly proclaimed, and finally delivered his judgment, and this Reality Marble began to exert its power.

The words hovering in the air, like chains that have come to life, formed a shackle-like shape and acted upon Manshu.

Manju could clearly feel the flow of magic within her body, and her power was slightly blocked.

This is the effect of Hieda Rei's Noble Phantasm, Puppet Garden Tour. Hieda Rei used the shell she perceived as "reality" to envelop this Reality Barrier.

Then, within this inherent barrier, he used his own understanding to interfere with the spirit origin of the mysterious heroic spirit, thereby reducing its performance.

"Ha, this restraint is far from enough. It can't even slow me down."

Nine Manjusaka scoffed at this, and with a sneer, broke through the Martial Venerable's obstruction, unleashing lightning that injured Musashi.

"Indeed, my Noble Phantasm is still at a disadvantage against you. I know perfectly well that mystery does exist in the shadows of reality."

Hieda Ari shook his head, his eyes lowered as he spoke, but his gaze immediately sharpened again as he looked at Manju.

"But I also know that you, the nameless hero before me, who is as powerful as a god, are also a legend!"

The power of the three puppets in the garden flared up once again, but this time the shackles they brought were even heavier.

This is not merely Hieda Rei's perception, but a definite reality.

Even Rokubusivaras's leaping steps slowed down a bit, and Ushi-Gozen's blade, imbued with demonic power, could even pierce Zeus's lightning.

"Ha...that's interesting. Was it a lucky coincidence, or did you actually realize it?"

It was only at this moment that Manju truly focused his attention on Hieda no Rei, who was pale and looked like he was malnourished.

"As the recorder, how could I not know that the scenes you depict are merely people's fantasies? They only appear when reality is woven into a story, so you must just be a fantasy, just a legend!"

Hieda Arie emphasized his words and repeated his earlier judgment.

“My existence is not a fantasy, but you are half right.”

Manju jumped off Busyvaras, and the steed that had once carried the conquering king toward the end of the sea vanished.

The treasure that Manju had been stealing, the Doji Yasutsuna, which had been hanging from his waist, also fell to the ground.

All of this is indeed just fantasy, something derived from other people's stories and then imposed on Manshu by external forces.

Even after everything is negated, nothing is left; after continuous weakening, lightning and sunburn still remain.

This power is real, but it is all that remains.

Chapter Fifty-One: Rise

Even if you can deny this fantasy, how long can you deny it? You are well aware of your own contradictions.

Before you even denied it, I had already seen your name, Caster Hieda Rei, right?

Manju spoke slowly and deliberately to Hieda no Rei in front of him, putting on a nonchalant and easygoing demeanor.

"That's right, my real name is Hieda Rei, and I'm just a mere recorder. Don't bother trying to stall for time, Saber, Rider, Archer, and Berserker, don't waste the opportunity and time I've created. Just kill the unclaimed Rider!"

Hieda Arei, however, had no interest in talking to Manju. After giving a brief reply, he shouted loudly to the Servants behind him.

"Understood, it seems we're going to win. If you hadn't done something so outrageous, you would have been the one to lose, but there's no point in talking about it now."

The Servants naturally seized this opportunity that seemed to slip through their fingers at any moment. Wuzun took a deep breath, and the ultimate technique of Orochi's Raging Waves was unleashed from his hand once again.

Today he has already unleashed the power of the Heavenly Cloud once and displayed his ultimate technique several times. This is probably the only magic he has left, all for the purpose of defeating Manju in one fell swoop.

"Yes, let us perish like this. Only by defeating you can my wish be fulfilled."

Rider also threw out a demonic bullet radiating demonic power, following behind Takeru, trying to pick up Dojigiri Yasutsuna who had fallen to the ground first.

As for Musashi, who was injured earlier, she is still unable to stand up. She had not been able to obtain a normal connection with magic power, and the series of fierce battles had already pushed her to her limit.

Samson, having recovered from his feverish state, roared angrily, ready to once again display the strength with which he had once slaughtered the lion.

Zhou Yu must have taken the time to recover, but instead of summoning warships, he simply nocked his bow and arrows and unleashed a rain of fire arrows.

“You two really need to hurry up, Hieda Ari. You are the man who recorded the dawn of Japan’s golden age. How can you say that fantasy does not exist in reality?”

The earliest fantasies of this land were formed in your compilation. If you are unwilling to be a part of it, then you will inevitably deny yourself. But how can you win in that case?

"Heh... Hieda Rei, you've already lost the moment you uttered such ridiculous words. See? No matter how much you deny it, the sun will still rise."

Manshu said calmly, revealing that he already possessed more than just the power he had been given.

Manju gouged out his own eyes and ripped out his own heart; his intention to solve the problem was now quite obvious.

He could just call out again, just as he had once traded his eyes for Gungnir, offering his heart so that the obsidian mirror would hang eternally on his chest.

With the power of the gods, such a situation is not insurmountable; on the contrary, it should be extremely easy to overcome.

Although there are still seven enemy Servants present, only five are capable of fighting, with only Hieda no Rei and Zhou Yu in good condition.

Therefore, all that's needed is the previous four things (9), and then using one's own body (2) to construct the new god to be served again (3). (5: △)

It's simply that these consecutive Holy Grail Wars were all in vain, and we need to return to the embrace of some god once again.

Giving up halfway through is really frustrating.

While it's impossible to do without relying on others, we have indeed come this far thanks to continuous blessings.

Then all that could be done was to look back. Manshu opened his eyes, those empty and broken eyes that needed to be filled.

"My sun, come back to my eyes, let me see through all things in this world, and let your light shine on this land once more."

Sekhmet, who had been staying near Circe to recover, suddenly stood up and jumped into the air amidst Circe's puzzled gaze.

Sekhmet did not land anywhere; he appeared in Hieda Arie's Reality Marble as he leaped into the air, and entered Manju's eye socket as he landed.

"That lion... Caster, it seems the sun rising that the ownerless Rider spoke of was a real description. That lion is probably a symbol of the Eye of Ra, and he is about to transform into Ra and raise the sun. We must stop him quickly!"

Dorothea said from the side, but the others present had already launched their attack, so her words could only be considered supplementary.

"Master, if things get to the worst, please use all your Command Seals. I'm preparing my ultimate move now. When things get out of control, I'll use the Command Seals to unleash my Noble Phantasm."

Upon hearing Dorothea's words, Hieda Arie had a slight sense of foreboding, and after pondering for a moment, he spoke.

At this moment, the attacks from everyone arrived. The power unleashed by the Martial Venerable's Heavenly Cloud Sword, combined with the power released by the Water Demon, was still terrifying. The eight consecutive attacks easily tore apart Manshu's defenses.

At least half of the power directly struck Manshu's body, and his body, having lost most of its power, was probably no match for a Level B attack.

But with Sekhmet already in sight, Manshu also had the strength to fight back.

He simply opened his eyes and unleashed their power; terrifying rays of sunlight emanated from them, colliding with the surging waves.

Hijo Gozen's attack followed closely behind. He threw the sword he was holding like a javelin, then bent down to pick up Dojigiri Yasutsuna from below, knocking the scabbard off and slashing upwards.

Although Ugly Gozen didn't have many opportunities to shine, her skills as the strongest mysterious assassin of the Heian period were undeniable.

Little Manshu could only manage to block the Martial Venerable's attack, then knock away the katana that Ugly Gozen had initially thrown. She then dodged but couldn't dodge everything in time, and half of her arm fell to the ground.

As it is said, some of the arrows that Zhou Yu fired from a wide area inevitably landed on Manshu and pierced his body.

"Heh... Has the long battle worn out your hands? Your blade should have severed my neck and sent my head crashing to the ground; your sword should have pierced my heart and crushed my spiritual foundation. It's a pity you couldn't do it."

Despite looking disheveled, Manshu still had the mood to laugh heartily, shaking his head as he addressed the crowd.

"Since you lack the ability yet still stand in the way of the rising sun, let the dull and ignorant weak be burned to ashes under the rising glory."

Although Wu could clearly feel an unprecedented weakness and pain in his body, and could feel life slowly slipping away from his flesh, this feeling would not last long.

Seven Manjushri simply opened his mouth again and chanted in a rising voice:

"I will unite myself with La."

Liu, I am the master of light, the youth of my own life, the birth of primordial life, the initial name of nameless things.

(iii) I am the prince of time, my body is eternal, my form is endless, I trample darkness under my feet.

From the sun's eye that Manju had opened, the fire of the sun blazed fiercely, first igniting one eye, and then igniting Manju's entire body.

(4) "If we don't stop Rider now, we'll never have another chance. My puppet Euro's blockade is about to end. Master, use the Command Spell. Now is not the time to hesitate."

2 Hieda Rei was able to perceive all the changes that were happening, and his Reality Marble seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

Therefore, he could no longer calm down and could only shout hurriedly.

If he still can't win, then the Ying Le Cup will indeed be completely out of his reach, and he will have no chance to defeat Manshu again.

"Ah...then I'll leave it all to you, Caster!"

Dorothea hesitated for a moment, but made her decision and raised her hand to use all three Command Seals at once.

The surging magical power formed by the three Command Seals instantly flowed into Hieda Rei's body, and the spell he had constructed was activated simultaneously.

"clear."

Hieda Rei used the large amount of magical power he had obtained to pour into the mirror-like lake where he stood.

Immediately afterwards, the pitch-black water gushed out of the surface like a fountain, reaching the scarlet night sky and condensing into a pitch-black sphere.

"O embodiment of calamity, come from the ends of the void, and offer yourselves here!"

Hieda Rei shouted loudly, throwing himself wholeheartedly into activating his Noble Phantasm, manipulating magical power to construct a massive spell.

If a magician skilled in the Holy Grail Ritual were present, they should be able to recognize that a Servant is being summoned.

However, such caution, with a Caster devoting all her energy to the summoning, likely means that what she summons is not something simple.

From that pitch-black sphere, three claws emerged, the filth of the Yellow Springs surged ceaselessly, and a six-eyed evil dragon was born from it.

"—The Imitation God Summons the Eighty Calamity Gods of the Sun!"

The Noble Phantasm activated by Hieda no Rei in the form of a Servant summoning summons the very god of calamity recorded in the Kojiki, the Eighty Calamities God.

According to the Kojiki, Izanagi, who escaped from the underworld, underwent a purification ritual to remove impurities.

From the clothes he removed came twelve gods, and then, during the process of washing his body, the eighty calamity gods and the great calamity god were born.

This deity is an evil god formed from the defilement of the dead that Izanagi acquired from the underworld, a god who brings many injustices, disasters, and misfortunes to life.

Summoning gods as Servants, even as Noble Phantasms, is still quite difficult.
